Dalla quarta di copertina

Expanding Fantagraphics’ project to reprint Marvel Comics’1950s genre titles, this volume blasts off to space operaadventure.In the vein of earlier comics-to-multimedia stars Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon,Atlas Comics launched their own pulp hero in 1951, looking ahead tothe futuristic year 2000. Across five issues of Space Squadron (and one ofSpace Worlds), headline talents including George Tuska, Werner Roth and AllenBellman (with back-up features by Joe Maneely, Christopher Rule, GeorgeKlein and Vern Henkel) showed Captain Jet Dixon and his Space Squadronblasting into action, facing cosmic threats like “The Armada of Death,” “TheSpace Demons,” “Terror from the Deep,” “The Temptress of Jupiter,” and“The Midnight Horror.”Come 1953, Hank Chapman and Joe Maneely gazed further into the future,envisioning the distant year 2075 and the adventures of Speed Carter, Spaceman.Scripted throughout by Chapman, Maneely launched and drew the first three issuesbefore handing off to one issue each by Mike Sekowsky, George Tuska and BobForgione, with back-up features by John Romita, Maneely, and Bill Savage. As otheraspects of the Atlas line leaned into the peak of pre-Code horror, the Captain of theSpace Sentinels and young cadet Johnny Day battled monstrous aliens with storiesincluding “The Space Trap,” “A Slaughter in Space,” “Die, Spaceman, Die,” and “TheThing in Outer Space.”Unseen in 70 years, scanned in high resolution, restored to perfection, and packagedas one extra-sized, beautiful hardcover volume, In the Days of the Rockets willopen a wormhole to the early cold-war four-color era of futuristic science fantasy.
